hey what's up? it's Catra.

Just a quick little announcement, punishment kind of sucks. it hurts. a lot.

but washburn is a fucking coward who wasn't ready to deal with what it meant to actually torture someone so I guess that's a plus.

yeah anyway i recommend avoiding punishment if you can especially after doing a double dose on Planker's psychotic obstacle course.

not that it's going to stop me from breaking the rules or anything.

yeah

yeah, basically

i don't need you to lie to me to make me feel better about myself

have i lied to you before?

what's my reason to start now?

why do you need a reason? no one else ever does

they did have reasons, just shitty ones. i have nothing to hide from you and i don't want you to do or be anything. i don't need you to fulfill an agenda.

no one here except adora has even heard of eternia

and during the ARE the first thing out of her mouth when we ran into each other, after "do I know you?" was "where's Catra, is she okay?"

no one here has any reason to think you're someone who can just be lied to because they don't matter.

which like, not that anyone should ever think that about you or anyone, for any reason

but like even if someone thought you deserved it because you did bad shit or whatever, why would any of that matter to anyone here? we're all in the same boat and who we were before we came here just doesn't matter that much next to shit like you being one of us, hurt by the people who are fucking up all of us, and fuck those guys and how dare they do this to any or all of us?

i don't matter to anyone else so why do you care???

[ Not true. Setsuna and Adora had helped her. And Adora had stayed. Had stayed. ]

okay maybe i matter to some people. i guess.

i just hate feeling like someone is pitying me. it makes me feel

weak

everyone's weak sometimes. no one's great at everything all the time. that's why you run with a crew, every time, even if outside of a job you prefer to be alone. its the safest and most effective way.

they're just trying to have your back.

i shouldn't need nayone to have my back though.

i trusted her before and what if

what if she leaves again

[ Or worse: what if Catra could have just gone with her the whole time? ]

what if a meteor crashes down on the rig killing us all and dooming this world to dissolution by Stuff?

you can't plan for the future. all you can do is communicate honestly with the people you love, and try to stick together.

[ Sounds fake but okay. ]

i guess.

you'll see.
